9/11 Blueprint: The Architecture of Destruction
September 5, 2007
Interview with Bay Area architect Richard Gage, AIA, about the organization he has
formed, "Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth". Outreach
to architects and engineers; presentations to the public and to professionals;
the physical evidence of controlled demolition of the World Trade Center
twin towers and building seven.

1,000 Architects & Engineers demand new 9/11 WTC investigation!
Press Conference Scheduled February 19th
As of January 2010, over 1,000 architects and engineers have signed our petition demanding a real investigation into the destruction of the three World Trade Center skyscrapers on 9/11. This petition, along with AE911Truth literature and DVDs, will also be presented to every Member of Congress.
To underscore the importance of this milestone achievement, AE911Truth is launching a massive publicity campaign nationwide and holding a Press Conference in San Francisco, California on February 19, 2010 followed by an exclusive Keynote Luncheon to include David Ray Griffin, Steven Jones and others. We will also host an exclusive A/E Conference in honor of our AE911Truth petition signers– many of whom will be flying in to San Francisco to join us. Mark your calendars now! This will be a day of events that you won't want to miss!
• DATE: February 19, 2010
• TIME: 11am – 6pm
• PLACE: Marines' Memorial Club & Hotel,
609 Sutter St.
San Francisco, CA
Officials, journalists, activists say 9/11 truth activists pose a violent threat; call for secret government disruption of our work – or worse
Note: This article addresses issues that arguably lie outside AE911Truth's mission. We consider such a departure to be justified in this case, because the paper by Sunstein and Vermeule specifically mentioned as the targets of its advocated "infiltration," the 16% of Americans who responded to a Scripps-Howard Poll in 2006 that it was either very likely or somewhat likely that "the collapse of the twin towers in New York was aided by explosives secretly planted in the two buildings" (Conspiracy Theories, p. 2).
You know you're getting somewhere on an issue of paramount public importance when your opponents stop making fun of you and start describing you as a threat to the established order, and supporting interference with or the elimination of your First Amendment rights, and even accuse you of being a terrorist.
Background 1: Weitzman's Defamation
One of the first shots in the threat campaign was fired just over two years ago by Mark Weitzman of the Simon Wiesenthal Center (to which we responded).
Testifying in November 2007 before a House subcommittee of the Homeland Security committee, Weitzman portrayed AE911Truth in what could be construed as part of a jihadist campaign in support of "violent radicalization," " homegrown terrorism," and "ideologically based violence." The words Weitzman intoned as our homepage appeared in his presentation – "Soon, soon, soon, the attack on Manhattan" – have never appeared on our website. Alas, anyone testifying before Congress has absolute immunity against being sued for defamation. All of this is a sour irony, given Weitzman's work as an "anti-defamation" activist.
COINTELPRO Revisited – by Harvard Law Professors
In early 2008, Cass Sunstein and Adrian Vermeule published a preliminary draft of a Harvard Law / University of Chicago Law working paper entitled "Conspiracy Theories". The paper has become "the talk of the town" in the 9/11 Truth community. The references at the end of this article are only a small sample of what's available through Internet search engines.
"We only propose to find truth, and turn it loose in the world." - Edward F. Adams (Founder of The Commonwealth Club)

The lecture at the Commonwealth Club of California was given only one week after the airing of the National Geographic special, entitled: "9/11 Science and Conspiracy." It was into the aura of purple haze propaganda-science that Richard spoke to a full house of a mostly knowledgeable and empathetic audience. As expected, their editors and producers once again tilted their machinery of mass public persuasion away from the truth in order to validate their preconceived outcome. Relating the television program to his live audience, Richard stated: "Well guess, what? We were featured on the 'conspiracy' side of the equation."
1,000 Architects & Engineers Call for a Real 9/11 Investigation Press Conference and Dinner February 19, 2010
AE911Truth will hold a press conference on Friday, February 19, at 11:00 AM at the Marines Memorial Club and Hotel in San Francisco. We will announce and honor the milestone of our achievement of obtaining 1,000 architects and engineers (A/E's) petitioning for a real investigation into the destruction of the 3 World Trade Center skyscrapers.
The Marine Memorial Club and Hotel in the heart of San Francisco provides a first-class backdrop for announcing AE911Truth's achievement
"We've got to follow the truth, no matter where it leads us." – Richard Syrett
Once again, Richard Syrett of AM740 Zoomer Radio graciously hosted a duel between AE911Truth founder Richard Gage (American Institute of Architects) and Ron Craig (International Society of Explosives Engineers) on January 10, 2010. Once again, the topic of the debate was "What caused the World Trade Center towers to collapse?" and, once again, Mr. Craig faced a tsunami of scientific evidence which left foundationless his assertion that no explosives were used in the destruction of the WTC buildings on 9/11.
Mr. Craig, a twenty-five year Hollywood veteran, is a guru of special effects, having worked on over fifty feature films, including Cybermaster (1999), Striking Poses (1999), and, most recently, Vendetta: No Conscience, No Mercy (2004). He is also a university lecturer, and, in his own words, "an expert in homemade explosives and booby-traps." read more...
As seen in this revealing photo, the
Twin Towers' destruction
exhibited all of the characteristics of destruction by explosives:
(and some non-standard characteristics)
No precedent for steel-framed high-rise collapse due to fire
And exhibited none of the characteristics of destruction by fire, i.e.
1.
Slow onset with large visible deformations
2.
Asymmetrical collapse which follows the path of least resistance
(laws of conservation of momentum would cause a falling, intact, from
the point of plane impact, to the side most damaged by the fires)
High-rise buildings
with much larger, hotter, and longer lasting fires have never “collapsed”
WTC Building #7, a 47-story high-rise not
hit by an airplane, exhibits all the characteristics of
classic controlled demolition with explosives:
(and some non-standard characteristics)
And exhibited none of the characteristics of destruction by fire, i.e.
1.
Slow onset with large visible deformations
2.
Asymmetrical collapse which follows the path of least resistance
(laws of conservation of momentum would cause a falling,
to the side most damaged by the fires)
3.
Evidence of fire temperatures capable of softening steel
4.
High-rise buildings
with much larger, hotter, and longer lasting fires have never “collapsed”.
